Chapter 235 - Sit on the Floor (2/2)
”Usually, I never enjoy sharing inter-planetary info... but, believe me, I have no intention of making you lonely. I'll find a way, that's a promise you can believe in.”
Elizabeth looked at Nik with a smile. A beautiful one at that filled with emotions of a mother that made Elizabeth all the more enticing at the moment.
”Nik...”
”Before you say anything... it will take time. To find a method to balance our lives... my relationships with you... all of you.
And you better believe that I'll be a trained dad by then.”
Nik grinned and took Elizabeth's hands into his hands as he matched her warm expression with gleeful eyes.
”I would love a trained dad for our kid.”
”Ehm...”
A flat stare was all it took to bring the happy, future planning couple back into the reality as Shigure placed a heavy set of glimmering gauntlets on the table while Elizabeth's hands moved quickly to pick the cup to save its contents to fall from the vibration and giving Shigure a hard stare.
”These are... purple...”
Nik gulped and Shigure nodded.
”I remembered... how you looked at my sword...
I worked... very hard.”
”Than—”
”No... thank you...” A crimson flush touched Shigure's cheeks as she continued, ”We are... family...”
Nik smiled and nodded before letting his index trace the surface of the carefully forged gauntlet. It was dull silver in appearance and the product seemed to have been constructed to cover Nik's forearms with some sort of leathery substance used as the base to put the metal together.
Gingerly putting on the gauntlets and locking the latches around his arm and the buckling the opposing belt of the gauntlet by rotating it around his bicep through his back, Nik finally exhaled loudly and felt that his hands were somewhat comfortable.
[Name: War Gauntlets (Tier— Purple, level-10)
Description: Gauntlets created by the weaponsmith Shigure. The spiral hinge over the wrist of the Gauntlets store a thin blade ready to surprise the enemies and requires the user to tap on the center of the palm and press the lock. The materials of the gauntlets allow the flow of a few certain types of energies.
Effects:—
Crush: 29
Pierce: 30
]
Nik did as explained in the description and tapped on the slight lock on the centre of his palms and instantly, two thin blades emerged out of the round inscription on the backhand of the gauntlet, surprising Elizabeth.
”A hidden weapon?”
The blades were thin and pointed. Meanwhile, Shigure touched the Gauntlets at various places before nodding in satisfaction.
”Fits... good.”
”A purple item from the get-go... this is definitely better than the items from blue medallion...”
White, Green, Dark Green, Blue, Dark Blue and then Purple.
From the looks of it, the next item tier would be dark purple.
With that, Nik disarmed the [War Gauntlets] and looked at duo before smiling.
”Might as well try my luck in front of you guys... maybe, I can sponge off your luck.”
Nik smiled and finally took out his medallions. He had already pushed this event for an extremely long time.
”So this is what the hosts get in return for killing, huh.”
Elizabeth looked curious while Shigure showed no visible interest.
”Yeah, let's start from the worst.”
Nik nodded and took out his collection of medallions.
